FAA 13A Runway Protection Surfaces (Aviation)

Zusammenfassung

Generates runway protection surfaces based on FAA Advisory Circular 150/5300-13A.

Safe and efficient landing and takeoff operations at an airport require that certain areas on and near the airport are clear of objects or restricted to objects with a certain function, composition, or height. These clearing standards and criteria are established to create a safer environment for the aircraft operating on or near the airport.

Verwendung

• This tool generates runway protection surfaces based on design matrices defined by the FAA. A design matrix consists of an approach category and approach design group. You can choose the design matrix to use for your surfaces by setting the Approach Category and Approach Design Group parameters.

  Some design matrices only apply to aircraft under 12,500 pounds. You can use the Small Aircraft parameter to specify the design matrix for a small aircraft.

• The Input Runway Features parameter value must be z-enabled.

• The Output OIS Features parameter value must be z-enabled.

• This tool creates the runway protection area surface in an existing polygon or multipatch feature class. If a feature class is used for the Target OIS Features parameter value, it must have a vertical spatial reference. It should have Name and Description text attributes, which will be populated in the output features. Suitable Target OIS Features parameter values can be the following features classes from the Airports 18B schema(Airports18B_NAD83_GX.xml): Airspace\ObstructionIdSurface, ObstructionIdSurface_MP, or RunwayProtectArea.

• If the Runway End Features parameter is specified, the corresponding field values in this layer will override the values specified in the Approach Category, Aircraft Design Group, and Approach Guidance. parameters. This is useful for providing specific input per runway end. The Airfield\RunwayEnd feature class is suitable input for this parameter with the following fields populated: Approach Category, Approach Guidance, and Design Group.
